(...) You could maybe design a special module to split the fast rate stream into some number of slower streams - to be recombined later. So if (for example), you had a bunch of 0.5bps modules, you could build two chains of them and dump alternate (...) (20 years ago, 6-Jul-06, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) In *principle*, this is one reason to have the possibility of "splitter" modules - you could take a 1 bps stream, and subdivide it into two streams with lower rates (0.5 and 0.5 bps, or even things like 0.75 & 0.25 bps, are easy to do (...) (20 years ago, 6-Jul-06, to lugnet.robotics)
